XEvent notification (configure event)

Hi I've one question about Open Inentor event loop Is it possible to tell Open inventor, that a specific part of the application want'ts to be notified about x configure event, without intercepting event processing of SoXtExaminerViewer? Is it possible to request notification after viewer has been created and realized?

would replace the EventCallback set by SoXtExaminer Viewer or any derived class or ancestor without stroring it's address. Creating my own class beeing derived from SoXtExaminerViewer setting new callback while saving previous callback is not possible either as Viewer is allready existing when specific part of application requests to be notified about configure events.

So which would be the best solution for registering non intercepting notification for X configure event without breaking Viewers event handling mechanism, when viewer allready has been created ??

FYI, none of the standard SoXt classes call setEventCallback. So as long as you know your application does not use this callback in some other place, it should be safe to use it.

Hey guys, Has anybody ever had any success using the Notify.exe that ships with Max? I am running Max r3.1 and this following problem is driving me mad!! I have tried over and over again to get Notify.exe to work properly with Max, however the best I can expect from it is to launch itself..(the actuall exe) when Max completes a network render....it doesnt play the sounds that it if configured to play....it just launches the Notify.exe program! I will now write down step by step how I get it to work (or not get it to work as the case may be!!)....if anybody can see me doing something really silly and obviouse...please point it out...

1: Open Notify.exe and select the sounds I wish Max to play for each event...Complete/Failiures/Notification 2: Set up my scene in Max and run a "Network" Render. 3: Check the "Notify" box in the Network Render menu, and check the boxes next to Completion/Failure/Notification 4: Set the network render running.... 5: Sit back and wait for something to happen.... 6: Get very angry when absoulutley nothing happens excpet the Notify.exe program launches...and does not play any sound whatsoever.

It also says in the Max manual that you can use any .BAT/.EXE or .CMD file as long as it has the name "Notify" infront of its extension... ie. Notify.BAT. It says that Max should then launch this program when Max renders...However, I tried this with a little BAT file of my own, (that connects to the net and emails you) but it did absolutley nothing whatsoever!!

Can anybody work out what on earth I am doing wrong? Its killing me lol....I just dont understand it!

If anybody can help...I would (as usual) appreciate it very much.

All the best

Mark

ps. I allready have the "Ishani" version of Notify.exe...which supposedly launches any application or file you want on render...however, I cant get that to work either!
